I think it is over rated.

It was a short lived cycle. They were made for only 2 years. Replaced by the 1025R with larger hazard lights, a green fuel cap and a tier 4 engine.

The 1026R is superior to the 1025R. Dealer I use is receiving many complaints about 1025, specifically the detuned engine to meet/avoid new regs. Have seen multiple 1025 purchasers return units asking for 1026 model. As far as overrated, I believe it depends on your needs and intended use of the unit. If upgrading from lawn tractor, many find it much more versatile. If downgrading from a larger unit you might find it lacking. As the former, I'm having fun with mine and waiting for additional attachments to arrive.
